1811 >>>>> 1812
 

While the 1811 is apart I put a dual control valve in it. But one of the side fittings is missing, and I need to make new lines from the valve to the hydro.

Anybody know what the specs are on the right angle fittings that go into the side of the dual control valve? They look like a straight SAE/oring boss type into the valve, then to a flared fitting to the tube. Maybe an AN style? ( I am not a hydraulics guy but know there are some gurus here). OD of the threads measures about 0.560" - the ones going into the side from the hydro lines are larger nuts than the ones connecting to the rubber hoses.

Then I will need some 3/8" tubing. Will brake line suffice? I can flare it, but the stock ones have a small collar around the end of the tube before the flare nut. I was hoping to reuse the nuts off the old lines of which I have several extra. Is that collar reusable?

Finally the hoses that go through the front of the frame may need a clip to hold them in place? Any insights on what type and where to get one of those?

Would one of the fittings from the original valve work?

Here's a good place to start. Item #19 is just a standard external snap ring. Take the coupler to a hardware store and find one to fit.

Yeah.... but if he doesn't have a coupler, the snap ring won't do him any good. He needs a set of couplers. That specific set is stupid expensive. (Cub Cadet want's about $60 A PIECE for them!!!) Better off using a Pioneer coupler (or other brand). Hunt around, they are out there.


You say you can flare it..... but "regular" flare (the degree(s) that flaring blocks are you buy about anywhere) is 45 deg, and hydraulic flare is 37 deg. It will work.... but has a possibility of leaks. As low of pressure as it is, it will probably be fine. But, if used with the sleeve, the sleeve is for 37 deg. You are better off finding a 37 deg flaring tool.

Brake line will work, yes.

You can buy the nuts and sleeves from McMaster Carr.

Yes, maybe. They are straight. I might’ve able to get a tight 90 in the line instead, but would be better if I put a 90 on it

If just a snap ring I may be able to find something, thanks. I do have the couplers

I do have the couplers so that Is good. Thanks for the heads up on the flare angle. McMaster it is for the nuts

Looks like I can buy those tubes pre bent... over $150 for the set!!!! Brake line will be cheaper

You didn't say you had the couplers.....


Google a flaring tool. McMaster has them, but they are pricey. You may be able to find one on the cheap.

Are you talking about the way they hook up on the valve like these do? The lines are different coming up from the hydro too. The input and return come in on the bottom of the single spool but they come in on the side of the double spool.

This is the fitting you need, it is SAE 6 by jic 6. Like Jmech said, nuts and ferrules from McMaster-Carr. 3/8 OD steel brake line from Napa or wherever.

Just look for a 37 degree flaring tool on eBay. 45-degree will work but if you're buying a tool just for the job might as well go with the correct flare angle
